Turquoise = Science, health, music, humor, or just something I like and want to share.

Why
have a color code? Well I have a tendency to want to highlight really
important things so I use this system. Also, this is a low-cost one-man
news blog and I simply want to add some color to the site and also help
to group stories. Tim Earl of Stirling

France says Geneva Syria Plan implies Assad must go ~ link ~ I said that the globalist controlled nations would hype up a false claim that the "agreement" requires that Assad must leave. From there the next step is to claim, again falsely, that the Syrians are not following the Geneva Plan which they agreed to and that the 'only option' now is military force. Same crap - different day and different nation (same as in Libya and their claims of what the UN Security Council resolution said vs. what it really said). Stirling

An Open Letter to Prime Minister Erdogan concerning the survival of Turkey ~ link ~ Good One - take the time to read it all at the link. Stirling

I am the author of ‘ 5 Minutes To Self-Immolation Of The
Israeli Empire’. 20% of Israelis want Israel to attack Iran. 60%
including the recently resigned heads of the Mossad and the IDF say that
this is just stupid. 80% of Israelis do want the United States to
attack Iran.An even higher percentage would probably love it if Turkey
attacked Syria and this immediately blew up into a war with Iran. Let me
explain: If Syria and Iran are attacked by Israel. they will respond by
launching 150,000 missiles at Israel. 42% of Israeli Jews live in 528
square miles of metropolitan Tel Aviv. I should not neglect Hezbollah
which has enough M-600 missiles with conventional 1,000 pound (453.6
kilogram) warheads to turn the city of Tel Aviv into a parking lot.
Syria and Iran also have fuel air explosive warheads which have several
times the explosive capacity of a conventional bomb. If that were
Turkey invading Syria, your invading army would cease to exist in
minutes. If fighting were confined to the front lines, then Ankara and
Istanbul would be spared. A reliable Syrian source has confirmed that
Syria has large stockpiles of nerve gas. Your countrymen will not want
to experience chemical weapons.

It is time we spoke of the Samson Option. Israelis have said that if
Israel is overwhelmed by a Muslim attack, they will launch all of their
missiles to take the whole world with them. Their forces now includes
those Dolphin submarines given to them by Germany. Israelis have said
they would even attack European nations who have supported them. How
many Muslims do you think the Israelis will kill if they drop 100 or 200
hydrogen bombs on them?

You have spoken in defense of the Palestinians. I commend you for
that. The Zionists really believe Israel has the right to all the land
from the Nile to the Euphrates river in Iraq. There are 300 million
Muslims and Christians living in the area the Jews claim. Where will
they go? And what of the Palestinians in the West Bank, Gaza, east
Jerusalem, Lebanon and the Jordan? They will be forced out in the event
of a war with Syria. Are you willing to accept this genocide against
Muslims as a consequence of your anti-Syrian policies?

Saudi Arabia tells its citizens to stay out of Lebanon ~ link ~ Another sign that a terrible regional war in the Middle East is very near. Stirling

The Saudi Press Agency quoted a Foreign
Ministry official Monday as saying it was safer for Saudi citizens and
their families to avoid travel to Lebanon until further notice.

The warning follows similar travel advisories
issued by Gulf countries in May including the United Arab Emirates,
Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain.

Assad tells Kremlin: I can finish the revolt in 2 months ~ link ~ On the Syrian-Turkish border, tensions
continue to mount. Monday morning, Turkey was still pumping large-scale
strength including tanks, antiaircraft and antitank guns, artillery,
surface missiles and combat helicopters to the border region. Saturday, half a dozen Turkish jets were scrambled to meet Syria helicopters approaching their common border.

In Tehran, Brig. Gen. Amir-Ali Hajizadeh, commander of Iran’s IRGC
Aerospace Division, warned Ankara that if its troops ventured onto
Syrian soil, their bases of departure would be destroyed. The threat was
made during Hajizadeh’s announcement of a three-day missile exercise
starting Monday in response to the European oil embargo. He reported
that long-, medium- and short-range missiles would target “simulations
of foreign bases in the northern Semnan Desert,” without mentioning any
specific nation except Turkey.

Turkey rushes additional F-16 fighters to Syrian border ~ link ~ Moving in some of the assets for the coming nightmare war. Stirling

Turkey says it has
rushed F-16 fighter jets to its border with Syria, having ordered the
deployment of troops and military equipment along the frontier.

Turkey’s military released a statement on Sunday, saying six jets
were sent to the area on Saturday, The Associated Press reported.

Middle East nations on War Alert ~ link ~ Braced against potential reprisals from
Tehran, Saud Arabia and fellow Gulf nations have placed their armies on
alert. Completing a deployment begun last Thursday for possible
intervention in Syria, Saudi Arabia has massed units on its borders with
Jordan, Iraq and Kuwait. The United Arab Emirates sea, air and special
forces are on a state of readiness, as are US Fifth Fleet vessels in
Gulf waters.

Scenarios for Syria: War and Stabilization ~ link ~ Diplomatic
attempts to solve the Syrian crisis have been rejected by both members
of the Syrian government and the opposition. As Ankara laments bold
rhetoric and militarizes its border with Syria, this article attempts to
foresee three possible outcomes to the ongoing crisis.

While
Kofi Annan’s original Peace Plan – if honestly implemented with both
sides respecting the cease-fire – would have defused the situation, it
is Annan and the member nations of NATO and the Gulf Cooperation Council
that disproportionately laid the blame for increasing violence solely
on the Syrian government, while those nations took every measure
possible to further enflame the situation by providing material
assistance to sectarian extremists. Considering the level of subversion
and deceit demonstrated by foreign powers operating in Syria, Bashar
al-Assad’s ambitions to crush sectarian fighters by force may well be
warranted. As with many other Western-backed uprisings operating under
the cover of “democratic” jargon, the use of violence, snipers,
mercenaries, and other armed provocateurs is part of a long established
pattern of national destabilization through the barrel of a gun.
Undoubtedly, there will come a time when those responsible individuals
answer for their crimes against the nation of Syria, and it’s people.

Big Banks have criminally conspired since 2005 to rig $800 Trillion market ~ link ~ Take the time to read this one at the link. Stirling

We noted Friday:

Barclays and other large banks – including Citigroup, HSBC, J.P. Morgan Chase, Lloyds,Bank of America, UBS, Royal Bank of Scotland– manipulated the world’s primary interest rate (Libor) which virtually every adjustable-rate investment globally is pegged to.***That means they manipulated a good chunk of the world economy.

We actually understated the impact of the Libor scandal.

Specifically, according to the CIA’s World Factbook, the global
economy – as measured by the world’s gross domestic product – is less than $80 trillion.

Financial Coup D'Etat in Europe: Government by the Banks, for the Banks ~ link ~ There are so few of them and so many of us...so WHY do we allow these corrupt and evil bastards get by with it??? Stirling

On Friday, June 29th, German Chancellor Angela
Merkel acquiesced to changes to a permanent Eurozone bailout
fund—“before the ink was dry,” as critics complained. Besides easing
the conditions under which bailouts would be given, the concessions
included an agreement that funds intended for indebted governments could
be funneled directly to stressed banks.

According to Gavin Hewitt, Europe editor for BBC News, the concessions mean that:

[T]he eurozone’s bailout fund (backed by taxpayers’ money) will be taking a stake in failed banks.Risk has been increased. German taxpayers have increased their
liabilities. In future a bank crash will no longer fall on the shoulders
of national treasuries but on the European Stability Mechanism (ESM), a
fund to which Germany contributes the most.In the short term, these measures will ease pressure in the markets.
However there is currently only 500bn euros assigned to the ESM. That
may get swallowed up quickly and the markets may demand more. It is
still unclear just how deep the holes in the eurozone’s banks are.

The ESM is now a permanent bailout fund for private banks, a
sort of permanent “welfare for the rich.” There is no ceiling set on
the obligations to be underwritten by the taxpayers, no room to
negotiate, and no recourse in court. Its daunting provisions were
summarized in a December 2011 youtube video originally posted in German,
titled “The shocking truth of the pending EU collapse!”:

Trans Pacific Partnership: Corporate Escape from Accountability ~ link ~ This is an issue that we all need to pay attention to. Stirling

Information has been leaked about the Trans Pacific Partnership
(TPP), which is being negotiated in secret by US Trade Representative
Ron Kirk. Six hundred corporate “advisors” are in on the know, but not
Congress or the media. Ron Wyden, chairman of the Senate trade
subcommittee that has jurisdiction over the TPP, has not been permitted
to see the text or to know the content.

The TPP has been called a “one-percenter” power tool. The agreement
essentially abolishes the accountability of foreign corporations to
governments of countries with which they trade. Indeed, the agreement
makes governments accountable to corporations for costs imposed by
regulations, including health, safety and environmental regulations. The
agreement gives corporations the right to make governments pay them for
the cost of complying with the regulations of government. One wonders
how long environmental, labor, and financial regulation can survive when
the costs of compliance are imposed on the taxpayers of countries and
not on the economic activity that results in spillover effects such as
pollution.

The New Financial Aristocracy ~ link ~ As governments throughout the world close
schools, lay off workers and slash support to the poor, old and sick,
the financial oligarchy that rules the world increases its wealth and
power.

The incomes of the top-earning bank CEOs grew 12
percent last year, according to an analysis of the 15 largest global
banks conducted by pay research group Equilar. These executives received
an average of $12.8 million apiece, even though the stock values,
earnings, and profits of most of the banks shrank.

Bankers Fraud Now Too Big To Fail ~ link ~ There is more outrageous news out concerning the Western banking
cabal, the crime syndicate otherwise known as our financial sector. The
news was not that these banksters have openly admitted that they willingly/gleefully participated in LIBOR-related fraud which exceeds (present tense) $350 trillion in scope. No, the news was that this crime syndicate has now proclaimed that its acts of fraud are themselves “too big to fail”.

As the banking cabal’s favorite apologist, it was delegated to Bloomberg to frame the announcement of this obscenity, in its best media spin.
Naturally Bloomberg did not use the phrase “too big to fail” when it
explained why these bankers must be allowed to continue their crimes:

Mexico's President-Elect to seek progress on reforms ~ link ~ Any true reform in Mexico would be great. It has long been a 'poster board' for failed corrupt Third World nations. Stirling

Mexican President-elect Enrique Pena Nieto on Monday pledged to
prioritize energy, labor and tax reforms and said he hopes to strike
deals with opponents to help push some changes through Congress even
before he takes office in December. Pena Nieto was speaking to
reporters after results showed him winning Sunday's election with about
38 percent of the vote and returning his Institutional Revolutionary
Party, or PRI, to power after 12 years in opposition.

Who does Tony Blair think he is ~ link ~ I think that the bum is very lucky that he and several close associates did not end up going to prison for the 'Cash for Peerages' Scandal. I play a key behind the scenes role in forcing him out of office. If you want the story, check out my book either on-line or hard copy [CASH FOR PEERAGES - THE SMOKING GUN] ~ link

A co-ordinated media blitz meant the ex-PM was inescapable this past week. Jane Merrick wonders just what his game is.

USAF C-130 crashes fighting South Dakota wildfire - link - The C-130 is a great long-serving transport plane, but it was never designed as a water bomber now are any of the water bombers used in America. The Russians, however, have a great twin-jet amphibian water bomber, the BE-200, that they have tried to sell to various American authorities without success. Since the BE-200 can land on lakes and scoop in thousands of gallons of water in seconds, take-off and water bomb a location and repeat the process again and again, it is a far more effective fire fighting aircraft than any water bomber fixed wing or helicopter used in America. It is a damn shame that we don't purchase and use these out west. They could save lives and property. Check out these link: 2010 Russian air tanker arrives in Santa Maria, California - with video (check out the video, good one) ~ link ~ Russian Amphibious Aircraft - video ~ link ~ Beriev Be-200 ~ link

The cause of the crash on Sunday evening was not known and the Air
Force was not identifying the unit involved or the status of the crew
members pending notification of family, Michael Kucharek, a spokesman
for the U.S. Northern Command, said on Monday.

The plane, one of
eight based at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado equipped with a
system that allows it to be converted to an airborne tanker, crashed
while supporting efforts to contain the White Draw Fire, the Air Force
said.

Japan buys F-35 stealth fighters despite price rise ~ link ~ Japan will buy four US-made F-35
stealth jets despite a sharply higher price tag, it said Friday, in
Tokyo’s first confirmed order for the next-generation aircraft which has
been plagued by delays.

An official from the defence ministry
said Japan would now pay 9.6 billion yen ($120 million) per aircraft, up
from the $110 million originally earmarked.
